DHMIS Review: Short 4, Computers

I know it's been a while since I've done one of these, but I'm finally back to do the next episode of the shorts; one that I'm not entirely sure if the episode itself is considered a fan favorite, but it definitely introduced a character who pretty quickly seemed to become beloved by most of the fandom.

To start, I love all the little details in the first shot of the episode. I've seen this short plenty of times and on this most recent rewatch, I actually noticed two things that I missed every other time: the duck decorations on the wall between the horse picture and the world map, and the fact that these guys have a fox head mounted on their wall. Actually, I did notice they had an animal head mounted on the wall, but I never paid much attention and I think I always just remembered/saw it as the typical deer head. Shame on me for assuming anything from DHMIS would be "typical", right?

I'd love to know how you actually play "Question Fun". Because it doesn't seem to make any sense, at all. There's no indication of spaces on the board - it's just one long path that goes all over the place. And when Red picks up the card, it's not like most trivia games where you have someone asking questions and someone else gets points or something if they answer correctly; because not only does it seem like the question is a free for all, but unlike most trivia games, the answer isn't on the card itself.

"Question Fun" might just be named that because if you're not super smart, you might be questioning if you're having fun by the end if you don't just give up or just decide you don't care about actually being right. After all, there's nothing on the card or anything else that proves you gave the wrong answer, according to the game's rules, is there?

You gotta appreciate the fact that these guys have gone from being stunned when the Teachers show up, to just being self-aware enough to understand that if something happens that could result in them learning a lesson, something in the room is going to come to life and start teaching them about it. Heck, it's almost like they're just trying to get it over with, putting in no attempt to be subtle as they cue Gilbert to start what was obviously supposed to be his song.

Colin really is the first Teacher to just...pop into existence, isn't he? Sketchbook and Tony were clearly in the scene before they came to life and started singing, and with Shrignold, you could argue that he flew into the shot from somewhere off screen. Colin literally just showed up out of nowhere. It honestly makes me wonder if even in-universe, Gilbert was supposed to be the main Teacher, but Colin had such an ego that he couldn't stand for that and took over. And apparently nobody cares because despite them clearly prompting Gilbert to help them, once Colin starts singing Red just decides to ask him instead.

Okay, apparently computers in this world just show up whenever they want, because the laptop also wasn't there until Red mentioned it. Meanwhile Gilbert apparently just decided to go back to sleep while all this crazy stuff was happening around him.

Anyone else kind of love how the Students try to answer the questions as a collective? Like Duck answers about where he lives; Yellow says what he likes to eat; and while he gets cut off, Red goes to answer the name question. And more importantly, Colin just seems to accept them doing this, moving onto the next set of questions despite the fact that technically they each only answered a third of the questions they were already asked.

I don't know who I relate to more in the scene where Red is trying to get Colin to shut up and then Colin just freaks when Red smacks his keyboard. Because I also hate when I'm trying to say something and other people just keep talking over me....but also want to scream whenever someone touches me without warning or making sure I'm okay with the physical contact. So I kind of channel both of them from that scene.

I love how, after everything they've already dealt with, this is apparently where Red just loses all his patience? And he doesn't just get like, mildly irritated or annoyed; he actually seems to get noticeably angry. Kind of makes me wonder why there's not more fanworks with him having particular issues with Colin, considering he really does seem to be the only Teacher who actually got under Red's skin. Maybe because a lot of the fandom was too busy shipping Colin with Tony to notice the potential for a rivalry of sorts between him and Red....

How did the "Hey look a (blank)" not seem to become a meme format? Personally that sticks in my head more than the "digitial style" or "do a digital dancing".

I know the usual interpretation of Red's "Wait, what?" right before his mind is apparently literally blown upon seeing the cheap recreation of the first episode (though considering the line about Roy being a computer is in the scene, I guess it's supposed to be a recreation of all the episode so far) is that he's confused as to what's happening. But considering the last line before he says that is "You are not invited to the party", I have to wonder if his confusion was less over what he was seeing, and more wondering what party this weird robotic voice was talking about.

So ever since I posted that poll I’ve been getting a lot of hate comments from people saying that I hate indie animation because I criticize HH, HB, and shows under their influence. But here’s the thing, I criticize them because they’re poorly written and rely heavily on childish humor; in fact, there are a lot of great indie cartoons that get overlooked by the animation community because they’re not under HH/HB’s influence. So if you’re an aspiring cartoonist, please DO NOT look at the work of Vivziepop or any other animator under her influence as inspiration.

Synopsis:

Since the events of episode 6, Duck has picked up on a change in the red one's behavior. Specifically, towards him. While the beast's internal workings befuddle him, he's intrigued by the prospect of developing their relationship (whether Red wants to call it that or not). But how is romance meant to be properly navigated? Maybe he can get some guidance from a couple new educational friends?
